Aiisma: An app that rewards users in exchange for sharing Covid-19 data
As the government is pushing hard to track down the rising number
of Covid-19 cases, data marketplace Aiisma, where users can share their user
data in exchange for rewards, has enabled a feature on its app for contact
tracing and symptom mapping.
AiiHealth,
its health-mapping feature, allows users to voluntarily and anonymously share
their health data in turn helping authorities to take proactive measures if in
case there are any abnormalities in the data pool. The startup also has a
trigger function to send anonymous alerts to any user who might come in contact
with a positive case.
"Our data figures show nearly one-fourth of our users were regularly
moving around the 500-metre radius during peak of the lockdown," said
Ankit Chaudhari, founder and CEO, Aiisma. "So these are figures shared by
users voluntarily and they are getting rewarded for this information."
